In Need of Adoption
Violet
Violet is a 2-3 year old german shepherd?/shar pei mix. She is only about 40 pounds and is great with people and all other dogs.
Violet came out of the shelter with 7 puppies. The puppies have all been weaned (she was a great mom!) and Violet is now spayed. She is also microchipped and up to date on vaccines.
Violet would make a great family dog. Very happy, is crate trained and is an easy dog to add to any family type.
email:info@peipeople.com
Maddie is good with other dogs (she is foster with 3 of them!) Maddie loves to play hide an seek with humans, but growls when other dogs try to play with her. Walks great on a leash. Doesn't even get distracted by other dogs barking. She knows how to sit and is not a runner she stays close by you and comes when called. Follows you around the house like your shadow. She is potty trained. She is very gentle and takes treats slowly. She is more cautious with men and small kids with fast movements scare her.
Wonton
Wonton is a male fawn Shar Pei, about 2 years old, that was found stray in Orange County. He is super sweet and loved the shelter staff with kisses and attention. Wonton's eyes do roll slightly, so he will have to be monitored for entropian and may one day need surgery.
Wonton is up to date on vaccines, is microchipped and is neutered. Wonton is 41 pounds and is good with other dogs - he loves to play!

Fuzzy
Fuzzy is a 7 1/2 year old male blue bearcoat shar pei. He is about 44 pounds and was found stray, but his owner never came to get him. He is super sweet, and loves people. He gets along with other dogs.
Fuzzy walks well on a leash, loves car rides (will ride right in the passenger seat!). He is very tolerant - you can pick him up and wrestle with him. He is very playful, even for an older boy. He was clearly a house dog and definitely knows how to make himself comfortable on a couch!
Fuzzy is neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccines - ready to go!

She'd love to be home with an active family. Sharlotte is about 50 pounds, is spayed, up to date on vaccines and is microchipped.

Champ
Featured in Orange County Register Newspaper. Click here to read the feature!
Champ is approximately 3-4 years old. He appears to be a shar pei/lab mix. He sits for treats, loves to fetch toys and is full of fun and energy. He will let you scratch him and hug him and he is very loving.
He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations. He is good with other dogs (not sure about cats) and is ready for a new home!
He is shy and tentative around new things (and can bark/growl and will put tail between legs when scared), but loves to play. Champ would do best in a nice stable home environment where he isn't subject to a lot of new stimulus. He would also love a yard to run around in. Champ would probably do best in a home without small kids (who can scare him with their unpredictability). He is about 45 pounds.
He already knows sit and shake!

Spike
Spike is a 7 year old shar pei chow mix. He is SUPER Mellow and just loves people. He would really like to find a home where he can follow you around (non-stop) and be your new best friend.
He is houstrained, rarely barks, is great with other dogs (as long as they don't jump all over him). He would really like a retiree or family where someone is home that he can spend time hanging around with.
Spike is neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and healthy. He originally came from a shelter, but has been with Pei People Shar Pei Rescue for a couple months. He is currently in a foster home in Orange County, but would really like a family home. He walks easily on a leash, knows how to sit (and learns quickly - he LOVES treats).

Got Ink??
Another way to donate is by collecting used ink cartridges from your printer, cell phones or larger toner cartridges from business printers.
We participate in a program that pays Pei People for our collection and recycling efforts!
We used to be able to send out envelopes so you could send them in directly, but the recycler stopped that program. If you have cartridges that you'd like to donate (original branded ones, no refilled ones please), please mail them to:

In Need of Adoption
Ginger & Roger
*mother/son pair*
Ginger (top photo) is a 7 year old female shar pei. Roger (bottom photo) is a 5 year old male shar pei. They are mother and son and were turned in by their owners to the shelter.
They are SUPER RELAXED and calm. Both are large and happy and would love to spend their day hanging out in a yard. They like being around people and other dogs. They don't need a high fence, cause they are happy at home with you!
See their You Tube video by clicking here
These two need to be adopted together. They have lived the last 5 years together and should enjoy the rest of their years together.
Both are super gentle and sweet. Both are crate trained, ride well in the car, are housetrained, and take treaks gently. They are both well mannered and get along with other dogs and kids. Both are quiet (not barkers at all) and love to give kisses and curl up with you.
Both are spayed/neutered, up to date on vaccines and full of love!!!

Sally
Sally is a bonemouth female shar pei. She is recently spayed and ready for a new home. She was a shelter favorite and volunteers brought her to our attention because they thought she was so great!
Sally is 2-3 years old and is around 48 pounds. She is up to date on vaccines and is microshipped.
Sally is hit and miss with other dogs (sometimes growls at them on walks, other times not). She would do best as an only dog or with a submissive dog in the household. Sally is super sweet and loves to give kisses and take walks (she does need to learn some leash manners!).

Larry
Larry is an adult fawn male shar pei (we aren't sure of exact age, but are guessing maybe 5?). He gets along with other dogs and people!
Larry is up to date on vaccines, will be neutered very soon and is microchipped. He is very playful and cute, likes kids, very cuddly and likes to nibble on your wrists affectionately. Sweet dog, really seems good with other dogs too. He even likes his crate. Likes toys, rawhides, chasing a ball. He walks great on a leash and loves attention.

Hazel
Hazel is a 2 year old female lilac horsecoat shar pei. She is a mini and is probably about 35 pounds. She is very tentative around strangers and territorial (she will back up and bark at new people), but she does warm up. She is good with other dogs (she likes the boys).
Hazel was raised around small children and other dogs. She will be spayed, microchipped and up to date on vaccines prior to adoption.
Hazel will be available mid-August.

Athena
Athena is a fawn/red brush coat chinese shar pei. We don't know her exact age, but are guessing 4-5 years. She is full sized, around 55 pounds (she could lose a few) and is typical pei. She walks well on a leash and knows "sit". She was rescued with her brother(?) Hercules below. They are available separately, but we'd love to find them a home together. Athena would probably need to go to an only-dog household or be adopted with Hercules.
Athena will be spayed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped. She is absolutely gorgeous and would love a new home!
Email: info@peipeople.com
Hercules
Hercules is a male shar pei with great fawn/black mixed coloring. He is full sized at 55 pounds. He is very sweet, takes treats gently and walks well on a leash. The shelter reported him to be food agressive with his bowl, so he needs an adopter that can feed him separately (we haven't noticed any agression). We think he is about 5 years old. He is crate trained and very friendly.
Hercules was rescued with his sister (?) Athena above and is available separately or together. Hercules is pretty mellow, walks well on a leash, appears ok with with other dogs (if other dogs bark or aggress at him, he will bark back).
Hercules is already neutered, up to date on vaccines and will be microchipped prior to adoption.
